Holy shit. Completely forgot about rollcage. Wild to me that anyone remembers that game enough to make a spiritual successor.

Was going to be upset because I played the game through game pass and bought the Lego dlc for it but not the actual game. Looks like they’re sending out free copies of the game if you are in the same boat. So that’s good.

The switch 2 itself was delayed til next year. The all but verified leaks and rumors originally had the switch 2 releasing this year before it was delayed. This was evidently confirmed by several different sources. Though rumors are just rumors.

Given the lack of noticeable aliasing in this trailer I wouldn’t be surprised if this footage is being run off Switch 2 hardware. Things to my eye look significantly sharper than what we’ve been getting from the switch.

Anyone know if and how this might affect Grayjay or revanced?

According to who? Halo CE anniversary is higher fidelity than the original sure. But the art direction is all over the place and not at all consistent with the original style. Not to mention the fact they changed the geometry of everything without actually changing collision. Making shots hit walls/trees/objects that are no longer in that spot.

They also just took enemy models straight out of halo reach without any consideration for how those designs match the original games aesthetic.

If you like it, great. I’m happy you’re able to enjoy it. But as someone who grew up with the original the anniversary version was a slap in the face and a blatant cash grab.

That being said I don’t have much faith that a new remake would be much better.

I mean. This is what Ubi have been doing forever. Just about all of there games allow you to link with Ubisoft connect for some little in-game tchotchkes. But they never require it. I remember getting the Altair outfit from it way back in Assassin’s Creed 2.

It’s not like Ubi are new to PC gaming like Sony is. Doesn’t make sense for them to change tact now. This is just an easy win for them riding off the back of Sony’s blunder.

And music streaming is only as good as it is because artists are getting completely shafted at every turn by both the streaming services and the record labels.

Eh SDR to HDR is a waaay bigger jump than Mp3 to FLAC. Assuming of course you have an actual HDR display. And not one of those “HDR” displays that only have like 400 nits of peak brightness.

You guys are getting headphone jacks?

I imagine it’s the same reason I like movies and music that came out before I was born. You don’t have to be generationally tied to something to like it. People are going to like good things if they’re good. I don’t feel like it really matters when something came out.

If you just launch steam big picture through moonlight and use the host client’s steam configuration you’d just be configuring an emulated Xbox controller. (which might be fine for your use case) you’d lose out on all the steam deck specific bells and whistles. No grip buttons or touch pads. If you use moondeck you keep all of the steam decks funtionaitly.

If you set up the moondeck decky plugin you can use your configurations without any hassle.

To add to this, there’s also a decky plugin called MoonDeck which, once set up, allows you to launch a stream for any game from the game itself rather than from the moonlight client. Really useful if you’re someone that likes to customize your controller configuration for each game.

Wasn’t there an old ps3 build of the first game uncovered a while back? So this isn’t even the first time they’ve thought about it.

Jesus christ. I think there’s a lot about that game I’ve blocked out. Piss grenade was definitely one of them.

Clearly you meant a cat as big as a house.

They didn’t. It’s $25 for the 48 DLC courses. Base game is still $60 in the eshop.

I somehow missed steam deck tools as a thing. Last time I tried figuring things out rewasd is what I kept finding.

Anyway just grabbed steam deck tools last night because of your comment and it’s great so far. Currently playing Lies of P and it’s perfect. Good looking out, man.

Only real way is to install windows. Even then though it’s not great. You have to use some third party apps to get windows store to recognize the steam deck controls as a controller. It’s a pain in the ass to get working at all and in my experience it’s super flakey and prone to crashes. (if you’ve ever tried to get the steam controller working with game pass games you probably already have a good idea of the problems you might run into).

A slightly more reliable method though is creating a kb+m desktop config for each game you plan on playing through gamepass and manually switching to it before launching your game directly through the windows store. Unfortunately this isn’t going to work super great with games that require analog inputs like racing games but it works great for things like fps games or traditional kb+m games.

Steam input is so flexible though that you might be able to figure out a way to get this working right with forza. I’m just not sure how you could. Maybe set throttle in game to some sort of mouse movement and in turn set right trigger to that same mouse movement in your desktop config. That’s pure speculation on my part though. I’ve never personally tried doing that myself. No idea if its actually even possible.
